Abstract

The dibutyl phthalate (DPB) is an emerging plasticizer contaminant that disrupts the biological processes of primary producers, especially phytoplankton. In this study, two microalgal species (Chlorella sp. GEEL-08 and Tetradesmus dimorphus GEEL-04) were exposed to various concentrations of DBP extending from 0 to 100 mg/L. The growth kinetics, N-nitrate, and P-phosphate removal efficiency were assessed. The response enzymes such as malonaldehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were also investigated. The results revealed that the Chlorella sp. GEEL-08 at 10 mg/L concentration of DBP exhibited higher growth (0.88 OD
